what not to do

[RoyceNewton]

Do not write an article about words, then quickly post it without proofreading properly first. I have no excuses, you have my apologies.

You have me scratching my head with this post.

I just had to post it without doing the proper proofreading, I was referring to the previous article

Okay. Sometimes silly stuff happens, and then the post box is engaged! Whoops.

If you stuff it up why don't you just go back in and edit it to correct your mistakes - that's what the Edit option is for - click on the More button underneath your post and choose Edit. When you have done your fix-its click on the blue Edit Response button and all your changes will be saved (for some unknown reason, instead of being sensible and having a Save Changes button, it's been labelled Edit Response - which is what you've already done............).

If you are worried that people might have already seen your mistakes and typos, then just add a new little bit at the bottom of your post noting that you've corrected your typos.

yes, I most certainly could do that & should have done that but I was busy for the next week and did not think I would get to it

You never need to apologize here Royce, not YOU- ever. I love that you make me think about MS outside of the "Box" that it tries to shove us all, into...

Take it easy on yourself.Mark Twain did! 🤣
